Peace

Hello and Welcome.
I'm happy that we will be celebrating a long wknd here in Canada so time to play!
These flower from Art Journey have inspired so many of my cards so I got them out and started to play.

So here are my card details.
I began by attaching my Rectangle Mask over my white card front.  Next, I sponged on some Broken China and some Shaded Lilac DOX inks with a blending brush to cover the area inside the mask.
I then added some stenciling using the Bo Ho Glam stencil and some more Broken China along the side and top of the inked area just to add some extra interest.
I removed the mask and placed the piece inside my Misti to stamp the flowers and add the sentiment.
It's really hard to see in my photo, but I scored all around the inked area to define it.
I simply mounted it onto a piece of cardstock with a coordinating colour, then onto a plain white card base.


Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

The colours you have used are two of my favourites and the added stencilling really adds lots of interest to the background Karen, and the beautiful AJ flowers look fantastic over the top. I love the lilac coloured layer which complements the image layer perfectly. x
